Well, it's good to meet you. Having said that, our backgrounds are quite different. I grew up in a country that was heavily bombed, big parts of the country in ruin because of a madman in Germany. And it was said, never again. And we followed the advice of Churchill : Europe put your .... together and unite. And we were the first, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg, nicknamed the BENELUX.
And I am pretty sure the average American and Dutch lead about the same daily life.
But then the average American, maybe even the vast majority, is raised under a different perspective, in the words of Robert Kennedy : It is our God given right to rule this world.
Think about that for a moment.
As if we still living in the middle ages, Popes going to war in the name of God.
And it is exactly what has happened and still happens, following the words of Robert Kennedy.
So here is my question, how much of your upbringing is influenced by this American mindset.
Just read on CNN, Trump lashing out on Canada.
